[PL] Leicester City (A): Match Thread

[SK]

Tootless upfront, captain and vice captain nowhere to be seen, thought lovren and sakho work well together, some mistakes yes, but overall they've done well.

[SB]

Two things about Leicester.....

They are a bunch of snidey diving ****s

The use of a towel to dry the ball for long throw ins is clearly cheating

I'd thought about the drying of the ball thing too.

[danperkins]

Was a very entertaining game alright, no let up.

[Assassin]

He's doing alright. Getting in loads of space. He's been poor recently but he's playing alright tonight. No point being biased against our own players.

Its closet manc syndrome

[Buzzo]

I'm not sure. He's getting a lot of space for sure, but that could be because Leicester are letting us pass to him because he's not a threat. Alternatively the manager might have told him to stand there. So I'm not sure he can take any credit for being able to receive the ball but he should take full responsibility for what he does with it when he's go it.

Well he set up one chance robbing Mahrez on the touch line with an aggressive tackle keeping the ball in play and shifting it to Lallana, and got into a position for a shot on target.

I think it's been a decent game and think we are playing pretty well.

What a load of ****e. Again.

[breffniboy]

Watching our attacking efforts is like looking at someone trying to cut concrete with a butter knife. Every attack, set-piece, overlap or promising position, you just have zero confidence that anything will come of it.

All over them in terms of possession yet they are totally unfazed and just waiting for our inevitable horrendous defensive calamity, Moreno the likeliest source. Wtf does that lad bring to the team anyway? Defensively precarious, can't cross, can't shoot, can't tackle but can run fast? Headless chicken and he boils my ****ing piss every time I watch him play.

Here's hoping something breaks for us before our defence does. On and on this pattern goes, on and on and on and on...

Look it's not a crime to be critical of one's own, look at Benteke!

[loki]

I can't understand how bad this collection of footballers are at shooting the ball. it's comical and they are making a bloody fortune! We don't have one midfielder who can shoot the bloody ball

[danperkins]

Look it's not a crime to be critical of one's own, look at Benteke!

[kubrickscube]

Why don't our midfielders shoot from distance? We seem to want to tippy tappy pass it into the back of the net. They attack quickly and have a go with a sniff of goal - which is why they're doing so well.

[labourRed]

Moreno is as stupid as Enrique was/is.

Playing without a striker is frustrating but our final third play is nosebleed stuff in any cas .

[Fosterbloke]

I'm struggling to see who we can bring on to make a difference. Ibe on the left for Can perhaps?

[danperkins]

Approach play been decent, good tempo but around the 18 yard box we just look so blunt. Be shocked if this game ends nil all with how open it is.

[Buzzo]

We are playing a team that has been in the top 4 all season. I don't think we are goin to beat them 5 nil.
